Vythiri Resort

Don’t come to this resort!
There is no provision of getting food after 10 pm.
If you are hungry in night, the resort managers will make sure you dont get food from kitchen as
L all chefs are sleeping and you don’t get food from outside as the resort is in jungle. Even if you are hungry like core they will not give you food after 10 pm till 7 am in the morning.
Had very bad experience.
Will make sure that I never visit this resort again.

Everything was speldind. Just 2 things that was a problem for me & family.
Tbe common pool was security issue for us as monkeys came running close to us to snatch and harm my family, we ran from there, and yet there was no staff in soght to help us. This was around 4pm on 3/2/24. There was another family with 2 small kids, the monkeys tried to attack them as well. The resort should have sealed the pool with the net they have used to seal all the building and play area within the resort. I wonder why they didnt do that.
Secondly, all those monekys were drinking from that very coomon pool.you would have no idea what kind of diseases they carry. Hence we even didnt get into the pool albeit we were all dressed up in our swimsuits.
I will be talking to the reception today about this experience.

The rooms are good and the place is very excellent and the peaceful to stay and the room view are excellent

Had a wonderful experience at Vythiri Resort. The rooms were wonderfully maintained and we could hear the stream and waterfall. The wifi was really strong (did a 2hr zoom from the room). The food was excellent, especially for buffet. A good balance between local and other cuisines. The massage was good as well. Overall a truly relaxing stay.

Loved the hotel and hotel views, hotel staff service. Thank you for the amazing experience

Very nice place to stay. Food and ambience is also very good. Location is very beautiful filled with nature. Must visit.

Excellent property wonderful location and service. Highly recommended for vacation.
It's expensive property but worth the penny.

Out of the world experience. Loved everything about the place. Couldn't believe people actually used so much brains to build such an amazing place love love only love

First, the best part here is the restaurant - food, service and the flexibility they offer. We couldn't make it in time for breakfast because of heavy rains, they were kind enough to keep food for us even after 11am. The people in the restaurant were kind and hospitable.

We stayed here for 3 days - Treehouse - 1 day, Honeymoon Villa - 1 day, Vythiri haven - 1 day.

Tree house was not that great because of heavy rains and we couldn't step out easily without the help of a security guard because of its complicated steps. So please don't consider treehouse during rainy season.

The Honeymoon villa was on point and offered a great experience with a pool inside.

Vythri haven was big enough for a group of 4 people and the jacuzzi experience was great. Along with this they offered complimentary massage and we took couple massage it was so authentic Kerala treatment and speechless experience.

Some of the issues we faced:
1. Wifi wasn't working at the reception when we went in
2. Power was going on and off frequently
3. Water supply was cut off in the tree house suddenly and it took a lot of time to resolve
4. Reception the staffs hospitality was little less and they just rushed us to vacate on point @11 didn't give some grace point just felt so unpleasant

Overall it was like living in a different universe amidst the woods under the breathtaking scenery just the rain hampered the nature walk and had a relaxing days here.

I will add more issues as I remember

Overall a great experience and had a relaxing couple massage which was great too.

We had very worst experience from here they don't know how to treat a customer. Their attitude towards a customer is very bad and completely adamant, Just money making is to motto not even caring about the customer satisfaction. We don't expect this kind of attitude from a resort with this much fame. I don't suggest this property to anyone.

I had a very bad experience from Vithiri resorts wayanad. Recently I have booked a tree house which cost around 20000/-, unfortunately I need to cancel / reschedule this due to one medical emergency, but they are not willing to refund/reschedule even if I have informed this prior to one week of checkin. They have charged the amount as retention without considering the fact that this is due to a serious medical emergency. So friends, please don't book this hotel unless you have enough cash to spend as retention, there are lot of other resorts which offer same facility with low cost and also this hotels have a facility for refund/reschedule when there is a serious medical emergency.

Can't summarise the experience we had in a short review. One of the best resorts to relax, in the middle of the nature. Right from reception, stay in the rooms (we were in pool villa), dining (restaurant staff and their captains Manoj, and others), live music (wow!), spa, nature walk, treeking, tree houses, other amenities at the property. I travelled a lot. For me and my family, this is in top 5 easily. We decided to visit this property again, multiple times. Awesome hospitality.

Worst reservation experience from this resort. We can consider this as a money making agency rather than a resort. The staff doesn't know the meaning of hospitality. If you need a calm and peacefull place for stay please choose a different resort. There are plenty of other resorts which offer same facilities with half of this price.

Saw lot of good reviews but when I reached i was surprised since the pictures provided in the site and reality was extremely different. The staff behaviour was very arguent. Food is somewant average. Resort is not suitable for this price range

I have very bad experience in vythri resort
Their service and their behaviour is very insulting and unrespetively. They want money only they didn't want customers satisfaction.waste of money and valuable time. I don't recommend this property to anyone.

Hello everyone, I recently visited Vythiri resort and this is my honest feedback.

First of all the resort is really far from Calicut Airport (approx 70kms) situated in a remote location which will give you a sense of insecurity until you reach the resort…

With that said below is my review.

The Good:
1. Food: Food is really great with lots of varieties to select from for both vegetarians and non vegetarians.
2. Staff Services: Humble staff with smiles always on their faces. Great service overall.

The Underwhelming aspect:
1. Expensive: I found the rooms rates are super expensive which can be matched up & compared with Taj. I was here in December so not sure if that’s the reason. Below are the prices per night for the dwells…
1. Honey moon villa with private pool: 25,000 per night
2. Tree House: 20,000
3. Pool Villa: 30,000

2. Tree House experience: First of all don’t go by the website images, the rooms are slightly different compared to their website.
Secondly the approach to the tree house which is outside the resort property will be a hell of a bumpy ride for you … trust me on this cuz, “road” comes under forest area and cannot be developed so its poorly built with stones and bricks.
Lastly, you have to climb really high to get to the tree house which is again inconvenient and since it falls under forest zone stepping outside alone is not permitted. So you’ll feel deserted and again you need to call in for a pickup to and from the resort if you want to have food, no room services allowed

Pros: incredibly beautiful location. Had taken the pool villa which was fantastic.
Very good ambience and it is an actual forest with very good views around the property.
Cons: for the price charged per day the service falls short on many things.
Food is average.
Evening entertainment during dinner is irritatingly loud rather than entertaining.
You can’t open windows or use the balcony even for 1 minute due to monkeys, making the rooms very stuffy and claustrophobic.
Not worth staying for more than a day just for the ambience.
Strictly okay for a days stay.

This is one of the best resort I have visited till date. Excellent location and service. Property is a little old but it's still maintained exceptionally well. Riding on road leading to the resort was pure enjoyment. Since the property is literally inside the forest you will get the vibes while you reach there on the way itself. With large old trees and variety of birds making exotic sounds. Resort entrance and waiting area was really good. Rooms were very large and comfortable. There are multiple bridges on the property across the streams which in rainy season are no less than any small river. Specially the rope bridge which leads to the restaurant was long and fun to walk on. Food was awesome and will most likely be part of the booking as there are no other options to eat in the vicinity of 7-9 kms. You will see an hear lots of fauna inside the property, starting with giant snails, leeches, exotic and endangered bird species, monkeys, giant squirrel just to name a few. They have indoor and outdoor sports and spa, They organize nature walk to the nearby waterfall or forest area. They have live music during the dinner time which was just excellent. All these comes at an affordable price. Don't miss this experience while you are in Wayanad.

There was fungus smell on the bed and blankets which will not go away even if they change the sheet. I understand it's due to the damp weather but there will be a way to mitigate the issue.for 50k price for 2 days there was no TV or AC.

Hands down the best resort that you can find in Vythiri. This resort is fairly large and has different types of rooms that you can choose from. We went for the tree house for a day and then moved to the cottage. Both of them were splendid and we were really thrilled by the tree house.

The staff are super friendly and ready to help you at every turn. The resort has a nice game room and an even center where they hosted a magic show the day we went. It has one common dining area and getting the all inclusive package here is the best. You can save money and also indulge.

Excellent place to stay with family.
It can be a memorable honeymoon trip also.
Surrounding Location of the Resort is forest and the are having an excellent staff to provide superb services.
Environment of the Resort is cool and calm.
Must visit once in life
Live Music is there with dinner.
Stream is flowing through the resort making an excellent place.
Will definitely make your trip with unforgettable memories.
Kudos to Maintenance Staff and their officers.

Road was accessible. The place was a mix of modern and retro style. The place had a lot of amenities. It had a football turf and a games room as well. Some of the rooms such as the vythiri haven had a Jacuzzi in it. There was a nearby waterfall. The overall experience was excellent.

If I could give more stars I would. The drive upto vythiri resort is great, bumpy but great and you can feel it is situated in a rainforest.

The rooms are top notch. Beautifully maintained. Go for the haven.the jacuzzi is easy to operate and goodbye stress. The air quality just makes your lungs feel fresher.

Now on the service, I can't iterate more on how amazing it is. Manoj, rejith and their team, does a wonderful job at the restaurant. The food is not an overwhelming buffet but just right with vegetables and fruits and non veg for those who need it (the Tikka muah:) ). Smiling faces and conversation makers make you feel at home and don't want to leave. The live music performances at night keeps you feel nice before retiring to bed.

You do not really have to leave the resort. It is a 25 acre property of you fancy a morning run. Please beware there are lots of monkeys around and milllipedes (yes you gotta watch we're you step and look for blood drops and if so, just wash with soap and you be good. No need to worry). Don't plan to be venture out of the property much in early mornings and night.

There are a lot of options for people who want to see things. Hike or take a jeep to enooru, edakkal caves, chembra mountains, banasura dam.

Shout out to everyone at vythiri for setting an epitome of service. Thank you and will be back next time we are in town:)

Vythiri Resort has been a wonderful surprise for myself. We had stayed two nights, one night in the treehouse which is few minutes outside resort and the other is in the resort. The pool villa is something worth experiencing once in a your lifetime! The location of the resort can’t get any better.it’s right in the middle of the rainforest.

Wildlife like monkeys, giant squirrels are like the usual residents you will get to see. Though we had been informed not to feed or interact with them.
The hospitality and food is very good. Very friendly atmosphere. I would say a bit slow but that depends if you are coming during the weekends which can get very busy.
Their was a live music night which was entertaining.
The landscaping and resort is built around the small waterfalls and streams.which you can hear everywhere around the resort.

I would highly recommend this place, it’s best for detox and unwind.

Nice place to spend some time with nature, in a forest with a beautiful stream that goes through the resort. Rooms are very comfortable, staff is very good and ready to help. Good amenities like swimming pool, sports are also available!

The resort is really really beautiful. The staff are extremely kind, helpful and accommodating to all needs. I made the booking from abroad and was very easy to coordinate with the hotel and get details regarding the booking. Would 100% recommend.

This place is a blessed holiday destination for newly wedded couples, family members and who are looking to take relax from work and spend time in nature, this is the recommended one. It is located deep in the forest land and you will feel that you are inside. The facilities are very good, the hospitality was very very good and the food taste was mouth-watering. Amazing variety of food items. Need to stay at least for 2-3 days to feel refreshed and enjoy nature. Don't miss the waterfall view inside the resort.

The place really have this fresh vibes and it feels like we are one with nature here. Unique experience and would definitely go there again

Excellent resort amdist of natural rain forest. One can experience the serene beauty of Mother earth. Very polite and helpful staff. Decent buffet spread including authentic kerala cuisine. The natural stream in the middle with a hanging bridge gives a nice ambience. Complimentary cake provided for our anniversary was a beautiful touch. If you are looking for a stay in the lap top nature for a rejuvenating experience, this is the place you are looking for.

We were frequent visitors to vythiri resort but our third and latest visit was not satisfactory. Terrible room maintenance as there were huge rats roaming and jumping from ceiling in villa rooms. Overall the authenticity and hygiene factors of the place is completely degraded. Decided not to visit anymore.

A very good resort.
Stayed for a day there with family.
Excellent hospitality,
Great food and excellent service.
My family also.liked the place and the serene ambience!

We went for honeymoon during December

We booked pool villa for 1 night and tree villa for 1 night

Climate is too cold during our visit

Pros:
Service is damn good

Food, the ultimate best thing

Ambience superb

Cleanliness

Cons:

Travel: subjective

You have to drive off road for 3 km before reaching resort

Beware of monkeys

Will I visit once again?

Definitely YES.

Elegant, exclusive and in its essence a state of mind, the Vythiri Resort is an exquisite jungle getaway located in Wayanad, a largely mountainous district in northern Kerala, a state in the south of India. Situated beneath an enormous canopy of a lush tropical rainforest, journey into nature's wonderland - in the company of amphibians, birds, fish, mammals, reptiles, flowering plants and butterflies that inhabit the dense Vythiri rainforest. You will be seduced by the promise of discovery, bliss and exaltation - body, mind and soul

Nice place with beautiful experience of nature but improvement is needed in services like there is no provision of heating in pool inside villa or jacuzzi. It’s not possible to enjoy pool or jacuzzi with cold water.

The best nature hide out in wayanad for couples! Forget about your electronic gadgets, it would just be you & your partner in nature's abode!

It was just a hype I would rather put it across, price for honeymoon villa was just expensive since there is no tv, ac, and wifi. There isn’t any thing that you can actually do in this resort. They amount they charge is like we are visiting Maldives. Not worth the price, only the food was good.

One of the best places I've stayed at. The resort is located inside a forest with rooms along a stream which offers fantastic views. The rooms are fully equipped and very comfortable. Great service too. Would definitely visit again and recommend everyone to visit.

1. Housekeeping is pathetic. Has to call for 5 times for extra towels and water in the room. It also comes after an hour.
2. The hygiene is not good. Even the water served had many particles in it.
3. The taste and quality of food is pathetic.
4. Management is rude. The risk involved in the nature walk was not informed to us. One of my friend got leach bite with blood coming for hours. It might be normal for them, but for ones who has not seen this in their life, this is scary and if the management will talk loudly, it is not acceptable.

Great place for honeymoon. More than the location and room, their food deserves special mention.

The best place for best staycation, we stayed there for 2N, 3D honeymoon package inclusive of gst and food, need not pay anything extra except for commuting. FYN - no wifi zone inside your stay since its a rainforest. For stay elated from the mobile and wifi, just nature. It is the perfect place to get peace under flora.

We wanted to have a relaxing weekend and booked at Vythri for a weekend. It was a fantastic resort at a beautiful location. The rooms are very comfortable, and facilities are good. The staff is very friendly. Food is ok given the location, but could be better.
Once in a life time experience in the serenity of whispering forests in the well engineered tree house. The resort was located on a nice location, good ambiences. Service and food was just ok. Will get good privacy and nice air since it is located inside a forest.

Huge outdoor hall beside the swimming pool. Also there is an indoor hall for occasions like marriages. Plants are well maintained.
I've heard that billiards and carroms was also there.

No welcoming call received hence big confusion regarding the route.pressure from the restaurant for taking early food also they charge things without informing guest for foods in buffet.no proper maintenance of surroundings.

Little expensive.but it's worth.stay in tree house is wonderful experience.resort is in the middle of waterfalls.they will take you for a natural treck to forest and falls

This was one of my best experiences I've had at a resort. Honeymoon pool villa is just incredible (a room with glass flooring and private swimming pool view right underneath). So was the Tree house, isolated from the crowd, giving you a memorable experience. Hats off to the quality of service and food that was served. The location of this resort is the best part, away from the city rush and surrounded by greenery. Only thing that made me cut down one star is the pricing. It really is expensive but the memory associated with this place will remain forever. Kudos to the great work from staff and management.

Vythiri resort, though a little expensive, it's worth to stay there once in your lifetime. Nice ambience and rooms are just amazing.staff also very good. Hospitality 10/10. Food is also good. Mostly south Indian (Kerala style) food.

Most nostalgic experience. At least one time in life all should experience The service in Vythiri resort. Very customer friendly staffs and especially tree house no words can express our ecstasy feeling.
Thank you very much team.

I had my best weekend here, a memorable one, worth for the money. I took a villa which cost me around 20,000 inr including food for one day. Villa has got a pool, super delux bed, very cossy beautiful rooms.they have a private waterfall but you need to walk for one hour inside the forest to reach this beautiful waterfall. Beware and be prepared for leaches. The food has also met my expectations and it gave me a homely feel. Hospitality of the management was also appreciable and approachable.you can visit nearby places since wayanad is rich in tourist destinations. Lekkidi is india second heavily rainfall receiving area. Climate is also cold breezy.all covid protocols are met and safe

I am giving this resort one star for poor customer support by Lezeldor. (Lezeldor takes care of calls, support, and sales of this resort). I paid for a gift voucher for the honeymoon pool villa and received the voucher from the Lezeldor office near CUSAT in person on Nov 1. I was informed that the couple must confirm the dates 10 days in advance and this voucher is valid till Dec 18,2020. When I called Lezeldor on Nov 28th, I was told that all the dates till Dec 18th are booked and I must pay 10k more to get any dates after Dec 18.
This hotel charges more than 25k per night which more than a day's stay at Marina Bay Sands, Singapore (for some perspective). When you pay this much, you expect some common decency to inform people who have given a stay at this resort as a gift voucher to their loved ones.
When I discussed the cancellation, I was informed I would lose 20k. Essentially forcing me to pay 8.5k.
I cannot tell you how a night's stay at this hotel might be. But to anyone who is planning to gift a stay at this resort to your loved ones, be wary.

The last second day, I felt there with my family very poor interaction of staff
especially, the man of managing duty,
the old property like some chire Will make us sadness. They fined big amount of rupees for local chire by unerpected falling in normal condition. It is not a visitors friendly place. POOR Luck.

Vythiri resort is the best resort to rejuvenate yourself in India.

The resort is built in the middle of the forest and that’s the main reason it provides its natural beauty.

The resort is built in such a way that it has its own natural waterfall (water is very cold). A long swinging bridge that connects two parts of Resort.

It has 6 different kinds of rooms available including a two floor villa with a glass floor and a treehouse (literally built on a tree).

One of the most great things about this place is the FOOD - the food here is so delicious. I've never had this taste before in Life in want to go another time for it's food. The desserts are super tasty.

The second most interesting thing was it's Ayurved Centre, One must definitely go for any ayurvedic massage here as the experience they provide here is mind blowing and makes you super relaxed. The people are very kind and helpful here, which doesn't make you feel uncomfortable.

As the place is fully built in Jungle you can go on a single day hiking as they provide a guide for that also.

The cottages are fully made like they are made naturally in the ancient era as mostly every item they used is wood and that gives a very awesome feeling of Nature.

It has a Jacuzzi in Bathroom and an inside built private swimming pool in the villa.
It has activities like volleyball, pool table, chess, table tennis, carrom, etc.

Updated for COVID -

Stayed at the hotel for 3 nights in Honeymoon Pool Villa in Dec 2020. Overall great experience. All necessary COVID related measures in place.

Pros -
1. Located on top of a hill, private and exclusive experience
2. Lot of variety and great taste of food; better than 5 star, no complaints.
3. Beautiful nature-focused property, big cosy rooms/villas, cool weather. Heated pool feels nice.
4. Swimming Pool and Spa is closed. Natural Pool (Pool near a waterfall) is open.
5. Activities - Nature's walk, Games Centre (TT, Pool, Carrom), Event Centre (Classical Dance)
6. Courteous staff, quick service

Cons -
1. No Wifi and TV in rooms. Mobile network connectivity is good.
2. Property lies in the forest area. There are monkeys, leeches and insects. We saw a snake as well. However, 100% animal free inside rooms.
3. All meals are in-house. Not many options to go out.

Mesmerizing experience of Rainforest within the reach of your balcony along the roaring stream passing by. The hanging bridge and the nature walk to treeHouse takes you right into the imagination of amazon rainforest from the natgeo series

Coming from the urban world, need to shred apprehensions for having visitors like Monkeys, green bamboo twig snake, yellow bison snail, leeches, giant red squirrels and also the rats. Apparently, its their territory, we are the visitors

The efforts and elegance invested by the promoters of Vythri Resort, does reflect on the landscape, architecture of the traditional Kerala cottages with mahogany wood and modern facilities. The food too is fair, prefer to try Kerala local delicacies, the cook has better hand compared to continental or mediterrain

Would recommend Vythri Resort to have 15 min intro sessions for all guests regarding the visitors (insects, reptiles, animals etc.) in the fraternity. Will help to set expectations, from hour-one. Maybe share a coffee-table book, as memorabilia with the guests

Also, pls setup a children play area, while the grown up has plenty of options from Badminton, football, basketball, billiards, carrom, chess, table tennis, to count a few.

By far the best tranquil place to relax and spend time with loved ones and family. Very unique place amidst the forest. You wake up hearing the birds chirping, water flowing in the stream, monkeys chattering etc. Best place to visit with family and kids as there are lot of outdoor activities to do. Be it sports, nature walk or a dip in the stream. We enjoyed every minute we spent here. I am happy to recommend this place as we truly had fun and relaxation.

We had been to tree house for one day.that was an awesome and adventures stay.the ambience is very peaceful, indoor games were really enjoyable.staffs were really friendly.the over all property is more than enough to make our stay pleasant and happy.

I just made a call for enquiries. First they didn’t take the phone later they called me back.fell better and happy

This place is highly overrated. What we expected was a posh stay with good food and service. But we were disappointed that our hopes were not met. The welcome at the reception was the coldest I've received till now. There was nothing professional about the service we experienced. We were just told a set of rules that we need to follow. And what are not provided and what not to do. No wifi in rooms, which was not conveyed during booking. (We booked directly by calling the resort)
Understandably pool, spa and other services were not available due to covid restrictions. But the food was a total let down. Atleast for breakfast they could've provided a buffet. Our meals were included in the plan. But it was set menu. The flavour and variety were not even close to what we expected from a 4 star resort. The only saving grace was the natural pool. But the whole property was poorly maintained, and so was the area near the water body. For such an expensive stay, we had looked forward for much more than what Vythiri resort offers now.

Amazing place to stay.
Right from the start, during this pandemic they take adequate care of the hygiene.
Smooth reception it was.
Rooms were excellent and next to flowing river stream which itself is relaxing. They have a natural swimming pool which is something unique.
Food was also good (not too much not too less) adequately balanced with excellent hospitality by the people there especially Mr. Shaibu.
In all loved it to enterity. Will surely visit again!
We stayed at honeymoon villa

I had a very bad experience staying here. The staff behaviour was very rude and didn't take care of any requests. There was no cell reception and no room service available and it was a rainy day which made it even more difficult to get help. Room cleanliness could improve. I requested for a refund or stay for compensation. There was no further response from the resort. The attitude and behaviour of staffs towards the guests was really unacceptable and impetuous.

Also the breakfast buffet served was not satisfactory. They had very less options on the menu and when asked for room service with extra payment, they turned down with an unpleasant smirky face.
We had to wait for like half an hour for someone to come and pick up our luggage from the room. But noone showed up in the end.
All together had a bad weekend.

Amazing location, superb resort staff, awesome food. Truly a must visit. To add, even experienced live music, tree house, massage, etc. Only down side was I was asked to cancel and get refund as some bulk booking had come up and that too 2 days ahead of my booked date, but fortunately did not have to cancel. Still a 5

Very bad experience. After booking the tree house and geting the booking confirmation for 9800 they called us for paying 5000 extra. As we are not ready to pay the same they have canceled the same. Greedy people

In the lap of nature. Paradise for nature lovers. Excellent hospitality and very helpful staff. Food experience during current Covid situation was a bit limited.

Highly expensive and poor quality of service. Booked the honeymoon pool villa (20k per day) for 3 days and 2 nights with great expectations. The hotel representative didn't even intimate any information regarding the limitations of service due to covid-19 situation but sure did say the atmosphere there was perfect for a honeymoon. First of all, the food choices in their hotel were too limited and the restaurant was not at all neat. A candle light dinner would be arranged if we pay extra but I had to cancel it because of the poor ambiance and limited food menu options. How about a honeymoon candle light dinner with parotta, chicken curry and somehow served icecream scoop? And also you need to go to the restaurant between 8 and 9: 30 at night for dinner. Felt like having food from a mess in hostel! No room service, no trekking, no spa or any services as provided in their website and no prior information. The place is beautiful indeed but it's utter waste of time and money to spend 3 days there in this situation. The stay was not even worth 10k a day. I would never recommend this place to my friends.

P. S. If you plan to stay there, carry your handwash and shower gel as well. Don't expect those in your washroom even though it's a star hotel. Wonder what's their excuse for this! Corona?

Amazing place. In lap of nature. U spend time in a rainforest close to nature and in complete solitude.

This review is a reflection of higher management and ownership. The reception, spa and kitchen staff are dilligent in trying to rectify the grievous misguiding of the resort.

After planning our trip to Kerala and coming across the Vythiri Resort website, we decided to spend two nights in this location. Firstly, the website is extremely misleading. This is not an Ayurvedic spa sanctuary in the jungle. This is a family oriented recreational facility. Though the grounds are beautiful, they are overrun with children under the age of 12. The spa offers a fraction of the services mentioned online and at a premium far higher than other resorts in the area. The spa is not in direct communication with reception/booking and as such I spent a reasonable amount of my time here clarifying the miscommunications between the two. Not terribly relaxing.
We elected to stay in the treehouse at a premium of r20000 per night (roughly $300 USD). Though we were aware that as international travelers we would be paying a higher price than Indian nationals (independently confirmed to be nearly 3x as much) we had hoped this price would reflect a certain degree of cleanliness at least. We were rather disgusted to find nail clippings from a previous occupant and tattered bedsheets. After mentioning this to management they moved us to a different, moderately better treehouse for our final night. Unfortunately none of the facilities seemed to be worth the price we paid, especially compared to the incredible experience we had recently had at another nearby resort (nearly half the cost for a longer stay- see my other reviews for further information). Considering we were only booked to stay for two nights, it felt like a nominal consolation for a situation that never should’ve existed in the first place. It very much felt as though they were trying to get away with something, so if you do decide to stay here be prepared to speak up. This egregious issue really should’ve been rectified monetarily or at the very least with complimentary spa / dining offerings. Simply moving us to a recently cleaned room was truly the bare minimum. At the time I was already worn down by the other miscommunications that I did not request more. None the less, at $300 per night, it should’ve been readily offered.

Unfortunately the overall atmosphere here is of monetary incentive. Though the location is indeed stunning, it is not oriented towards relaxation in the ways the website indicates. There are rigid expectations of guests and I would be hesitant to use the term accommodating to describe the resort. While it may be a worthwhile facility for Indian nationals and their families, it is extortionate for international travelers.
In any event you can do much better in the area for a fraction of the cost. Overall we were deeply disappointed in our stay here. We left feeling more exhausted having dealt with the resort than when we arrived.

Colonial architecture merged to serene nature. Best place for a peaceful get away. You will be fully disconnected from the outside world during the stay. A lovely honeymoon destination. Me along with my squad had a peaceful stay but as it was after covid-19 lock down only a few staffs were available and so services were limited. G. M Gopalakrishnan gave us a warmly welcome and provided us good hospitality with due respect covid protocols.

This is the best resort in kerala, no doubt. Those who love nature and forest this is the best option. Vythiri designed in a such a way that given priority to privacy, beautifully and highly professionally designed resort. Staffs are highly Professional. Good resort for families.

Such an amazing Spot to stay. Serene place. Excellent hospitality. It's a perfect honeymoon resort to enjoy with your loved one ️️

It has been a long time since I visited (August in 2019). I finally have gotten around to leaving reviews from my trip. I traveled during a very rainy monsoon and the staff and management were so helpful during my stay. There were some changes to my accommodations since I was supposed to stay in a tree house but the monsoon made a lot of damage on the trails. I was placed in a beautiful villa that exceeding my expectations, then the following nights they were able to place me in a different treehouse. The food is delicious, everything I could have asked for! And the wildlife around the resort is very beautiful and entertaining to watch. I saw so many wonderful little monkeys running around and enjoying their day. Even though a lot of my plans were changed from the monsoon I was still able to enjoy this resort to the fullest. Only thing is for the treehouse I stayed in it smelled a little moldy. Im sure it was because of the recent monsoon. It was an enriching experience either way and if I come back to Wayanad one day I would love to stay here again.

It seems to be 5 star hotel, need more improvement on the standards. Limited starters in buffet. I booked directly, last minute online deals were very cheap.

Nice rooms but a little dated. Overall housekeeping could be improved. Fineness to be improved. Gym lacks ventilation, equipment not well maintained. Food just ok. Staff very courteous. Couldn't be a 5 star resort as claimed.a little more attention to these details will make it a great place.

Good resort with many negative points.we maintained resort but very premium tariff.buffet breakfast spread with many options that includes almost all south indian tiffins, sausages, breads, live dosa/poori counters.overall it was excellent buffet breakfast. This resort was very big and spread across acres which is good and cottages also spread in different directions, the only issue here is transportation inside resort, the resort offers free local transportation with Maruti vans but the will never come on time, one need to wait for that by keeping decent buffer time.

Been here earlier as well cause of high demand no proper service
We wanted cab to go to parking lot waited for 10mints NCNS
However rest everything is superb

The resort is good but the services at the restaurant are pathetic. Rooms are old and not very well maintained.the staff don't bother much.they are taking advantage of their star status, and now don't put in much effort!

The best ever resort ive visited in wayanad. The 5 star hotel. Really worth the money. The romantic nights, swimming pool, zipline, POOL VILLA, food all are amazing. The ambience we get there in the midst of the trees
